Elizabeth "Betsy" Lanman

(17 Feb 1810 - Bef 1850)



From descendant Mark Windsor: Elizabeth was the daughter of John Lanman, born NC, and Martha Thraster. They married 1808, Knox Co, IN and moved to Perry County about 1811. Elizabeth was the second of 14 children.

Born in IN: Isaac, 24. Hiram, 18. Abraham, 16.
George Cumstock, 19. Louisa Cumstock, 15. Is Louisa a younger sister - or is this an even earlier marriage to a Louisa. Since George appears to be living with his grandfather, I suspect she is a sister - there was a girl of this age in his mother's household in 1840.
